LOS ANGELES, April 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Discover a revolutionary approach to mental health as All Access explores Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive treatment offering new possibilities for those struggling with depression.
All Access with Andy Garcia, a Public Television program dedicated to exploring groundbreaking innovations, presents a segment featuring FutureHealth TMS. This exploration, titled "Mind Meets Machine - Innovations in Mental Health," delves into the science and impact of TMS. This technology, using magnetic fields to stimulate brain regions associated with mood regulation, offers a beacon of hope for individuals who have found traditional treatments ineffective.
"The implementation of TMS Therapy for depression in our practice has been incredibly fun for us. I've had a whole career of trying to get medications to work. It's a struggle for the patient. It's a struggle for us. It's very hard work. But TMS is better. It works. It's the best thing we could have done for our practice, and for our patients," shared John Hennessee, MD, Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology at FutureHealth TMS.
For many, the journey to mental wellness is fraught with challenges. Treatment-resistant depression affects a significant portion of the population, leaving individuals feeling hopeless. TMS, a non-pharmacological treatment, offers a unique approach by directly targeting the brain's neural pathways. This segment examines how TMS stimulates regions in the brain responsible for mood, creates new neural connections, and improves communication between brain regions. While approved by the FDA in 2008 and covered by most insurance since 2013, many remain unaware of this option. All Access showcases the potential of TMS to transform lives, highlighting its benefits: positive response rates, significant symptom reduction, and minimal side effects. Intended for those with mild to severe depression who have not found relief through medication or therapy, TMS provides a effective alternative to medication. The segment emphasizes the ongoing research into TMS and its potential applications for other mental health conditions, including adolescents.
